## Reviews

### "Brilliant for live documents and dynamic slides. Not great for websites." — 5.0/5

> **Lawrence** | *17 July 2025* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Google Sites is the most robust and easy to use 'page builder' tool on the market. You can go from zero to an acceptable level website in minutes.
> 
> **Cons**: The name site is a bit of a stretch. I have tried building a few full websites with Google Sites and there are a few things lacking like good styling, mobile responsiveness and contact forms. It's a good page-builder or non-linear document, but not a website.
> 
> It cannot deliver a visually impressive website in the same way that competitors like SquareSpace or WordPress can, but it's brilliant for presenting information online. Think of it like a dynamic slide deck rather than a website.

### "Good with chance to be better" — 3.0/5

> **Ziggy** | *5 March 2025* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It’s ease of setup is really good, simple for even beginners to use and does not require any coding.
> 
> **Cons**: You can embed however it is on a fixed position on the site, not like an overlay. For example if you want to add a support chat button it would have to be on a fixed position on the page, not hovering in the ie bottom right like some sites.
> 
> Good, but could be better with newer features.

### "The ideal starting point for my first (ever) (small) website." — 3.0/5

> **Mark** | *30 August 2024* | Consumer Goods | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Initially a free resource, with plenty of useful features to learn some of the basics of web design. I learned a lot in a short space of time by creating a basic site, ultimately embedding Paypal store items and YouTube items to create a fairly convincing site from scratch. Integration with Google analytics pretty straightforward and useful to understand usage. Ultimately, a decent starter platform capable of creating a professional website with lots of trial and error.
> 
> **Cons**: Ultimately limited by some quirky limitations on what code can be customised, certain bits of javascript not permitted for example. Must add, I used the legacy Google Sites, so improvements may well have been implemented since. E-commerce not particularly strong, so only really suitable for very small businesses if necessary.
> 
> Positive - gave me access to the world of website creation from a knowledge bank of 0. Helped me establish a business and trade securely through Paypal, would recommend for hobby website creators or anyone wanting to have a play without committing to annual subscriptions.

### "Simple, clear and free" — 5.0/5

> **Lina** | *3 October 2024* | Higher Education | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Simple to use and free link to custom domain.
> 
> **Cons**: Design options are very simplistic. It simply looks plain in comparison to others.
> 
> Very simple to use but not many options available. Suitable for novices as they can't really do much wrong.

### "Great for start-ups and easy to use\!" — 5.0/5

> **Breanna** | *3 December 2025* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I needed to make a basic website to start my non-profit. This was amazing to start a business with because it was free, so excellent value. I had no need for customer support because everything was easy to use and self-explanatory. I chose a basic template and got to work. The website loads quickly and works perfectly. One day once I'm making more money i'd be happy to pay for a real domain name.
> 
> **Cons**: Honestly, found it very easy to use and amazing value (free). Maybe Google could advertise more that it has so many great free features.
> 
> Extremely positive. I would recommend it to anyone who is starting from scratch or just wants a nice website to start a club or anything.
